Bloodshed at the Fortress Gate...

Fierce battle with the Bear Army at the Fortress Gate today. 

My stock portfolio values had fallen more than $7k today.  The total portfolio value finally fell below the total invested capital value.  Reservist units (dividends) are activated, and with these reinforcement, the Bear Army is temporarily repelled. (The portfolio is still positive when including dividends).  

My "S" battalion suffered heavy casualties fighting the Bear Army.  The significant ones:
1. SPH (my foundation stock) wounded (value fell below average cost);
2. Starhill Global Reit and Suntec Reit wounded (value fell below average cost);
3. SPH Reit seriously injured (value fell below breakeven cost, including dividends);
4. SCI and SIA Engg died in battle (value fell > 20%).



 How long can the remaining troops hold the fortress?

  1. Hi PIF,

    Interesting analogy. My army suffered heavy casualty too. If S$1 = 1 soldier, then I have lost 6 divisions yesterday alone. :(

    Take heart. Persevere and we will win the battle.

    2. Hi Sanye,

      Early days perhaps. My portfolio lost 50% value during the GFC. Just hope SG50 does not mean STI drops 50%. Haha.

      Cheers,
      Farmer.

    3. If STI drops 50%, then the Great SG50 sales is on!
